Posting and international mobility in Poland

Sending an employee to work in Poland without moving them to another social security scheme falls within a precise framework, which depends first of all on the relationship between the sending country and Poland.

A badly prepared posting cannot be put right afterwards: the local institutions call for proof of continued affiliation to the scheme of origin at the time of an inspection, and an employee left uncovered is moved retroactively to the local scheme, contributions and penalties included. Entry formalities, permitted duration and prior notifications are handled with a correspondent established on the spot.

The framework applicable in Poland

The country is a member of the European Union. An employee posted from another member state remains attached to the scheme of origin under the conditions set by the European coordination regulations, and the A1 certificate issued by the institution of the sending country is the proof of this. That document is called for during on-site inspections: it is applied for before departure, never afterwards.
